I’ve been keeping a close eye on the progress at the bar formerly known as Toad’s. And it is real! While a bit lighter and brighter than Toad’s – Al is planning to open the first week of Feb. The plan is veggie focused with meats “sides”. Should be a great edition to the uHood!

Just an early and unconfirmed rumor – but according to EaterSF the liquor license of South End Bar and Grill (or is it Grill And Bar? the bar formerly known as Toads!) is transferring to Aaron London from Unbuntu. That seems like a huge upgrade for the uHood.

After the overly scientific nationwide competition – the nerds at 538.com have crowned La Taqueria the best burrito in the land. A controversial choice in my book … a bit saucy I say. Hopefully our uHood neighbor doesn’t become over-run by burrito tourists.
